Live from New York City, we take Rollin with Ngaio ON THE ROAD. Dessert first so we start a Big Gay Icecream with his daughter. They enjoyed some ice cream that is off the chart and chain if you know what I mean. Next was a recommended bakery with beautiful, big, and soft chocolate chip cookies. Visiting his kids in New York he gives his perspective of how the city and burrows are for him. At the orchard street pedestrian mall, he enjoyed "Pickle Day"..... yea. Not being a fan of Honey Mustard pickles he still had to try what this pickle vendor had to offer. Overall New York was a Total Sucess, and there are many more stories RIGHT HERE...... on Rollin With Ngaio.
Many people – including myself – are no doubt surprised to learn about New York City’s rich four hundred year military history. I teach in Flushing, New York, deep in the heart of Queens, at one of the country’s largest public universities. And in my American History survey classes, I strive to bring as much of the city’s history to bear as possible. Now after reading Steven Jaffe‘s book, New York at War: Four Centuries of Combat, Fear, and Intrigue in Gotham (Basic Books, 2012), I realize that I could do a lot more covering New York’s military history. Jaffe escorts his reader on a dramatic tour of New York at war, from the settlement of New Amsterdam by the Dutch in 1624, to the city’s response to the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. It is an entertaining and informative tour, and one which I can attest will certainly affect my own treatment of the city’s history in my classes. Overall New York at War is a pleasure for all readers, but it should have a special place for our listeners from the metropolitan New York area. Learn more about your ad choices.
